We are located in the scenic community of George's River. Our Highland View Organic Farm and Cottages overlooks thebeautiful Bras D'or lakes. Perched 100 feet above sea-level, you can see the Kelly's Mountain lookoff and the Cape BretonHighlands Mountain range stretching off to the North. Directly across the river to the North is Grove's Point. To the West is George's River Mountain.

Your hosts, Cyril and Lauretta Welsh and family take pride in offering a peaceful, serene and friendly visit. Our guests can rest quietly or take part in on-site workshops in organic farming techniques, beekeeping and traditions of the Mik'maw medicine path. Hikers and birders will have the opportunity to observe nature and the majestic flight of our respected bald eagles, 'the Messengers of the Creator', who nest and feed in the area.

In season , you can enjoy fresh organic produce in your own complete kitchen. Saltwater beaches, golf and horseback riding are found only minutes away. We are just 10 minutes from the town of North Sydneyand the Marine Atlantic Ferry Terminal to Newfoundland, and only 6 minutes from the Trans Canada highway. We are about 30 minutes drive from the dowtown sector of the City of Sydney.

We want you to experience the Cape Breton recommended by National Geographic.

Our farm produce has been certified organic since 1999. This year we have applied for certification with the Atlantic Certified Organic Co-op. They are accredited to Canadian Organic Standards. You can visit their website by clicking on their logo here to visit their website:
